"Rotary Position Sensor"...

We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Rotary Position Sensor", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Signal conditioning module from Penny + Giles, which we summarised at the time by saying "The SSC unit is housed in an IP68 rated rugged metal enclosure and is suitable for OEMs wanting to convert sensor output voltage signals to a 4-20mA current signal". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Rotary position sensor suits harsh environments from Gill Sensors: "Small, light and robust, the Blade Rotary sensor is fully electronic with onboard processing providing considerable configuration flexibility".
 
In November 2005, we covered the news from Penny + Giles concerning its SRH880 - take a look at Hall effect rotary sensor set for MTEC launch which says: "With a 88mm diameter housing and 12mm diameter shaft, the SRH880 is the largest noncontact Hall effect rotary sensor in the Penny + Giles industrial range".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Penny + Giles, Rotary position sensor handles knocks and shocks, as well as Angular position sensor takes new ASIC onboard from BEI Technologies, and Gearbox role for rotary position sensors from Penny + Giles.
